Only select a word for word translation Bible (e.g. NASB, ESV, New King James). Stay away from paraphrased Bibles like NIV, Living Word, etc. God’s Word is true. Men are liars.

NIV is a translation, not a paraphrase

I use the NASB for study but also check out Young’s literal at times. I audited a class with one of the translators of the NASB (Merril C Tenney) while I worked at Wheaton College many many moons ago. I was awestruck at his humility.
